2022 Map of Eidson Lake

About this map

Leon River meanders through this portion of Hamilton County, shaping a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts and named promontories like Twin Mountains and Long Point. The river’s path is flanked by several significant tributaries, including Mesquite Cr and Indian Cr, which cut through the terrain toward their confluence. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of three distinct cemeteries—Preacher Cem to the north and the Gann Cem Upper and Gann Cem Lower complex to the south—provides valuable reference points for family research in this rural pocket of Texas. The eponymous Eidson Lake serves as a central landmark in the southern reaches, where the network of county roads like Co RD 210 and Co RD 215 provides access to the dispersed homesteads and farms that characterize the area's development.
